How's it going everyone!!! It's been a long time since I've been on. A lot has been happening here on Guam. But mainly I retired after 40 years in Publice Safety (Forestry, Police and Fire). It's been hard adjusting to full time fishing, BBQing, and my photography.

Anyway, I just wanted to pass on my Mahi Rub to everyone since it's the season for giving. Try this on fish and other seafood. That is what I developed it for. But of course feel free to try it on anything you like....even sprinkle a little on fresh fruits like mango and peaches. Adds a "Bam" thing to them.

It has been a while. I have really miss you all and this forum. Just been so busy adjusting to a new life style....retirement. When the dust has settled and things are somewhat normal. Still smoking and grilling. I even produced a 2014 Guam calendar. Came out great.

Screaming Chicken try that rub out. It will surprise you on the flavors and how it gels with grilled fish and other seafood.

CharredGriller, I have made it before without the MSG before for a friend and the rub is fine. It's just that the MSG give things that extra "Bam" if you know what I mean. But it still works and that's whats important.

Also into fabricating smokers and grills. I help out in the design and my son-in-law is the actual fabricator. Here is a grill we just completed recently for a restaurant...

We just roasted a whole hog (about 200 lbs.) the other day in a large, gas roasting oven (homemade). We also did a few hams and turkeys (in foil).

Congrats on the retirement, but when he first retired my dad commented that he was busier than when he had a job!

The fabrication business looks like a nice sideline, especially if it's not being counted on as a primary source of income.

Very true ScreamingChicken... seems like you become busier when you retire. But you become busier with more enjoyable matters like family or personal projects...

Fabricating pits and smokers is a great way to make a little sideline cash for sure. But you've got to love what your doing and keep it in perspective. Seeing the final product is exciting every time!!!
